IMPORTANT!

Prior to installing and operating the winch, please read this manual thoroughly

and carefully. Keep this manual and all other instructions accessible at all times.

Although this manual will help you become familiarized with the operating pro-

cedures for the winch, it is by no means a substitute for proper training and the

safe use of winches, barge rigging and other marine equipment. Because own-

ers and operators are solely responsible for determining whether a particular

usage is acceptable, only individuals trained in the proper use of winches, barge

rigging and other marine equipment should operate winches.

The typical operational environment of winches includes very high forces, and

the potential hazards associated with these forces should not be underestimated.

Improper installation or misuse of the winch may result in injury to persons or

cause equipment failure or damage.

ALWAYS OBSERVE THESE BASIC SAFETY PRE-

CAUTIONS:

• To reduce potential of electrical shock or other injury, turn off and lock out or tag

out power source before initiating any maintenance or repairs.

• Keep all ﬁ ngers, loose clothing and any foreign objects away from winch while in

operation.

• During operation of the winch, always remain to the side of the winch, slightly be-

hind the gear motor.

• Never operate the winch from the front or when bystanders are in front of it.

• Operators and bystanders should stay clear of any load and the wire rope while the

winch is operating.

• Under no circumstances, should any winch be used to move, raise or lower a

person(s) or equipment.

• Do not operate the winch unless you have a ﬁ rm stance on a non-slippery surface.

• Do not apply tension to the winch unless there are at least four complete wraps of

rope on the drum.

• Inspect the winch carefully at least once a month for worn gears and pawls, cracked

welds, and other damaged parts. If any worn, cracked or damaged parts are found,

stop use immediately and remove the winch from service until all appropriate repairs

are completely made.

1. INSTALLATION

WINCHES SHOULD ONLY BE LIFTED BY THE

LIFTING EYES ON EACH SIDE OF THE WINCH.

NEVER LIFT THE WINCH BY THE GEARMOTOR

OR DAMAGE WILL OCCUR !

1.1. All winches must be installed on ﬂ at, rigid and non-

slippery surfaces. Deck and structure must be strong

enough to withstand the weight and holding capacity of

the winch, and the forces likely to occur during operation.

1.2. Place the winch in the mounting area, in line with the

direction of cable pull. Check to make sure there is enough

clearance and Fleet Angle Distance for proper operation.

(Refer to Diagram on Page 8.)

1.3. Weld to deck along the complete length of both foot

mounts. Use seal welding to protect the weld against cor-

rosion. Remember, the weld has to be strong enough to

withstand loads equal to, at least, the Ultimate Shock Load

Capacity of the winch.

WARNING! ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD

WIRE CONTROL BOX AND REMOTE STATION OF A

WINCH. W. W. PATTERSON COMPANY IS NOT LIABLE

FOR DAMAGE CAUSED BY UNAUTHORIZED OR UN-

QUALIFIED PERSONNEL ATTEMPING TO CONNECT

A WINCH TO A POWER SOURCE.

1.4. All winches have been factory wired to the voltage

speciﬁ ed at the time of original purchase. All winches have

been factory tested prior to shipment to insure proper

operation. Assuming the control box and remote station

have been properly installed and wired, no further wiring

is required except to connect the winch to the control box.

1.5. Open the conduit box located on the motor. The

conduit box has been conﬁ gured to the voltage speciﬁ ed

at the time of original purchase.

WARNING! EACH WINCH HAS BEEN FACTORY WIRED

TO THE VOLTAGE SPECIFIED AT THE TIME OF ORIGI-

NAL PURCHASE.

1. INSTALLATION (Cont'd.)

1.6. Connect each of the three wires from the control box

to one of the three usable groups of wires in the conduit

box. Please review the label inside the conduit box for the

speciﬁ c wiring schematic. Properly close the cover on the

conduit box.

WARNING! ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD

PERFORM THIS WIRING. CAUTION MUST BE TAKEN

TO CAREFULLY READ AND UNDERSTAND THE WIR-

ING SCHEMATIC FOUND ON THE INSIDE OF THE

COVER OF THE CONDUIT BOX.

1.7. Disengage the locking dog. Depressing either the

IN or OUT button on either the control box or the remote

station, test to make sure the winch drum turns in the ap-

propriate direction; the rope must reel in from the bot-

tom of the winch drum. Should the winch drum turn in

the opposite direction than desired, open the conduit box

and disconnect two of the wires leading from the control

box. Reverse the position of those two wires in respect to

their original position. Reconnect each of the two wires to

each of the bundle of wires from the winch motor. Close

the conduit box. The winch drum should now turn in the

proper direction.

WARNING! TO REDUCE POTENTIAL OF ELECTRICAL

SHOCK OR OTHER INJURY, TURN OFF AND LOCK OUT

OR TAG OUT POWER SOURCE BEFORE INITIATING

ANY MAINTENANCE OR REPAIRS.

1.8. Coat all gear teeth with heavy-duty gear grease and

lubricate both sprockets and the roller chain.

WARNING! FAILURE TO REMOVEL THE BREATHER

VALVE TRANSPORT FIXTURE MAY RESULT IN DAMAGE

TO THE GEARBOX.

1.9.Remove the Breather Valve Transport Fixture Shipping Plug

and discard properly. The gearbox must be checked to insure

the gearbox is ﬁ lled to the proper level with oil. When touching

up paint on winches, DO NOT paint over the Breather Valve.

2. ATTACHING THE WIRE ROPE

2.1. Rotate the drum until the cable clamp nuts appear in the

slot on the side plate. Using a standard socket wrench with

extension, loosen the nuts.

2.3. Slowly start to reel the rope onto the drum. Maintain

enough tension on the rope to be sure the ﬁ rst coil begins

snugly against the side of the drum and each successive

coil is snug against the previous coil. Check to make sure

the rope is reeled in from the bottom of the drum.

2.4. Continue to spool the rope until at least four (4) com-

plete coils of wire rope are snugly on the drum.

WARNING! FOUR (4) COMPLETE COILS OF THE WIRE

ROPE MUST BE ON THE DRUM AT ALL TIMES IN OR-

DER FOR THE WINCH TO ATTAIN ITS FULL HOLDING

CAPACITY.

2.2. If installing a new winch, remove and discard the cable

clamp spacer. If replacing worn out wire rope, remove

the rope from the cable clamp and dispose of the wire

rope properly. Insert the new wire rope from the front of

the winch into the cable clamp until 3 to 4 inches of rope

extends through the clamp. Tighten the nuts evenly.

WARNING! PERIODICALLY RETIGHTEN THE NUTS

ON THE CABLE CLAMP TO INSURE CABLE IS SNUG

AGAINST DRUM FLANGE.

3. OPERATION OF WINCH

3.3. The electric brake is a disc type, normally set by me-

chanical spring pressure. It is released automatically when

electric power is supplied to its solenoid. In other words,

brake release occurs simultaneously with the powering

of the motor and the brake locks automatically when the

motor's electric power is turned off.

3.4. REEL-IN: Depress the IN/FORWARD push-button.

Continue to reel in wire rope at rated load and speed until

motor reaches stall. To stop the winch, release the IN/

FORWARD button and the brake will engage.

WARNING! FAILURE TO STOP POWERING THE WINCH

AFTER MOTOR REACHES STALL CAN RESULT IN

MOTOR BURNOUT.

3.5. REEL-OUT: Check to see if the Locking Dog is engaged.

If it is not, depress the OUT/REVERSE push-button. This

will allow for the pay-out of the wire to the desired length.

To stop the winch, release the OUT/REVERSE button and

the brake will engage. If the Locking Dog is engaged,

manually rotate the counterweight towards the back of the

winch. Depress the IN/FORWARD push-button until the

counterweight rotates the locking dog out of engagement.

Release the IN/FORWARD push-button and depress the

OUT/REVERSE push-button. This will allow for the pay-out

of the wire to the desired length. To stop the winch, release

the OUT/REVERSE button and the brake will engage.

3.5.1. If the counterweight does not rotate the locking dog

out of engagement the usual cause is that tension on the

wire rope exceeds the stall pull of the winch. In this case,

reposition the vessel to decrease the tension on the wire

rope.

WARNING! FAILURE TO DISENGAGE THE LOCKING

DOG PRIOR TO REELING OUT CAN RESULT IN MO-

TOR/WINCH FAILURE.

WARNING! KEEP ALL FINGERS, LOOSE CLOTHING

AND ANY FOREIGN OBJECTS AWAY FROM WINCH

WHILE IN OPERATION.

3.1. The W. W. Patterson electric winch is designed for

easier operation and longer life. If sized correctly, installed

properly and maintained regularly, this winch will last many

years.

3.2. The electric brake, electric motor and gearhead are

integrally mounted to the winch frame. Normally, a two

button (IN/FORWARD and OUT/REVERSE) control sta-

tion is used to operate the winch. Each button should be

wired in such a way as to provide for automatic stopping

the moment either button is released.

WARNING! ONLY A QUALIFIED ELECTRICIAN SHOULD

BE ALLOWED TO WIRE CONTROL BOX AND REMOTE

STATION OF A WINCH.

5. LUBRICATION AND INSPECTION

6.1. All grease ﬁ ttings should be lubricated regularly using a POLYUREA grease such as ALTRA 500 EP2.

6.2. All gear teeth should be coated regularly with heavy-duty gear grease.

6.3. Regularly, inspect the winch carefully and completely for worn gears and pawls, cracked welds and other dam-

aged or worn parts. If any worn, cracked or damaged parts are found, stop use immediately and remove the winch from

service until all appropriate repairs are completely performed.

6.4. Regularly, check roller chain tension. Correct tension is movement back and forth of the roller chain, when pushed

and pulled by hand, between 3/4" and 1". Adjust top-plate bolts until correct tension is achieved.

6.5. Regularly, oil roller chain using brush or spout can.
